DJLDRUMS Posted March 27, 2023 #1 Share Posted March 27, 2023 (edited) Sailed on 3/19-3/26. Cabin Attendant told us that the new choose a morning or evening cabin cleaning would begin for all cabins below the suites for that ship on 3/26. Told us that they've been told by their supervisors, absolutely no exceptions to the new rule which is making them nervous where some attendants will have up to 24 cabins to do. Basically, even a generous tip to clean your cabin twice would get them in trouble Other things from menu selections to reduced food portions as well as less quantity in drink glasses are all a reality and have been covered extensively from previous posters, otherwise the staffing was pretty close to normal, the ship was in good condition considering the maiden voyage back on November 18, 1999. Any questions feel free to ask. Edited March 27, 2023 by DJLDRUMS 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daycare Provider Posted March 27, 2023 #2 Share Posted March 27, 2023 WE are doing a B2B in two weeks. Is there a line customs in PR for passengers with no luggage?

As a B2B passenger you do not use the regular disembark procedure or go through the customs lines. They will leave a letter in your room explaining the procedure. It can vary by ship, but normally they have all B2B passengers meet in a designated location at a designated time. Often they have customs agents meet you there. Then they'll take you off the ship as a group. You'll have the option to leave for your excursion, or re-board the ship after all passengers have left the ship. If you are going on an excursion they will give you an In-Transit Pass that will allow you bypass the regular check-in and boarding process to re-board the ship, although you will have to go through security.

Disembarkation day, well that's another story. Everyone was supposed to be out of their cabins by 8:30 and go to assigned locations. As it was as soon as you were in an open area a crew member told us, if you're ready you can leave the ship. That caused a backup at the Customs checkpoint right after you got your luggage. ALTHOUGH if you're Pinnacle there's a separate line that bypasses others going through Customs. Sort of like a priority line. One of our party members was Pinnacle and we're all D+ so that worked out perfect to disembark. I guess you can do a Walk Off" by 7:30-8:00 with no problem.

Yes, everything from the two day early flight to San Juan to all the islands and everyday beaches we went to, the flight home was all an excellent adventure. We'll be off again in early May on the Adventure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same glasses but not filled close to the rim as you'd normally expect to get regardless to whether you're paying for it, a drink package or a C&A benefit. I will say that for the most part if we got a weak drink the server did add a little more if he was told the drink was too weak. Waiters and Bartenders have been told to do that even if questioned. It's just one way for the Company to save a little more money. One bartender said the reason is, it's so people wont spill their drinks on themselves or on the floor. Yah right, and I've got a bridge to sell yah too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruiselova67 Posted April 7, 2023 #10 Share Posted April 7, 2023 Hi, we will be on the Voyager in a couple of weeks. Do you remember which night they served lobster in the main dining room? We are trying to schedule specialty dining around lobster night. Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
